Why Gold and Silver?
TOP 5
REASONS TO OWN GOLD
Gold is the only money that has kept a strong value over the 5,000 year history.
Gold is a completely private and anonymous wealth preservation instrument that is also extremely portable.
Currently, there is only enough investment-grade gold available on Earth for every living person to have less than one ounce, making this precious metal highly sought-after.
Throughout human history, gold has been revalued to account for all excess currency in circulation. Today, to account for all the US dollars printed by the Federal Reserve, gold would have to be revalued at AUD$15,000 per oz.
In times of crisis, gold is the safest form of insurance that also has the greatest potential to protect your wealth. Studies over the past five decades have confirmed that a balanced, diversified portfolio holding gold performs better than those without gold.

REASONS TO OWN SILVER
The world has used up as much silver as has ever been mined, and today's silver inventories are at very low levels, yet silver is extremely affordable. This may not be the case for very much longer.
For wealth protection, silver appears to be the better option in the precious metals space because it is in incredibly high demand and yet still so undervalued.
Apart from being physical money, silver has thousands of essential industrial uses - silver is the most electrically conductive, thermally conductive, and reflective metal on the planet.
Silver is a 'miracle metal', second only to oil, as the world's most useful commodity.
Over the last 5,000 years, there have been approximately 3800 fiat currencies that have become worthless - no fiat currency has lasted forever. Eventually, they all fail, and today fiat currencies are all made of paper, backed by nothing.
